How Air Fluidized Therapy Works

Air Fluidized Therapy is proven to be one of the best technologies to help wounds heal faster. With AFT, the bed is filled with silicone beads and warm filtered air, providing a fluid-like flotation that gently flows around the patient. AFT relieves pressure on wound sites, allowing for increased capillary blood flow. The technology is designed to maintain a cleaner, more comfortable micro-environment to inhibit bacterial growth.

Manufacturer Narrative

The hill-rom technician found the proportional valve needed to be replaced. The technician replaced the proportional valve to resolve the issue. The patient was evaluated by the hospital nursing staff and found to have a sacral wound that had progressed from a stage 2 to a stage 3, as well as 3 wounds on her left foot toes at a stage 2 and 1 on the fifth toe at a stage 1. The patient was treated with wet to dry dressings, santyl ointment, hydrogel and skin prep. Development of pressure ulcers is multifactorial and cannot be only attributed to performance of the surface. Siemens sensation 4 technical manuals. Risk factors include protein-calorie malnutrition, microclimate (skin wetness caused by sweating or incontinence), diseases that reduce blood flow to the skin, such as arteriosclerosis, or diseases that reduce the sensation in the skin, such as paralysis or neuropathy. Position changes are key to pressure sore prevention and treatment. These changes need to be frequent, repositioning needs to avoid stress on the skin, and body positions need to minimize the risk of pressure on vulnerable areas. Per the hill-rom user manual, poor fluidization; if fluidization is sluggish or uneven, notify your hill-rom representative. Fluidization is affected by the following: room temperature, humidity, the amount of materials, such as fluid, cells or cellular debris, which has escaped from the blood vessels and has been deposited in tissues or on tissue surfaces, restricted air circulation from blankets on the bed. A search of the hill-rom maintenance records showed hill-rom performed preventative maintenance on this bed in 2017. It is unknown if the facility performed any other preventative maintenance on this bed. Based on this information, no further action is required.
